You may have already heard something along these lines but here goes; the comp on the front page for the tickets is a cracker, we need as many of you as possible to enter. Remember - one Cliosport member *will* win this stonking prize! As they say, membership has its privileges...
Anyway my serious point is this: one of our aims as a club has always been to get official Renault recognition. To build and maintain a cool Clio scene it helps to have Renault involved and up to date on what we actually do and how we drive and modify our Clios, and this kind of club/manufacturer setup is what keeps clubs going for decades.
There are very few enthusiasts clubs around who are even noticed by their manufacturer, let alone given the kind of recognition that could be on the cars at the moment with Renault. Citroen are one of the few examples of a manufacturer who knows full well about the popularity of its hot hatches and I dont reckon its any coincidence that they are well into modded Saxos at shows etc and even supply approved tuning gear and sponsorship.
This competition is one of the first real link-ups with Renault and is also a way that they can gauge whether there actually is a huge Clio scene and a thriving Cliosport club, or whether its just half a dozen people with a website. We all know that its the former rather than the latter, but all members need to show a bit of support here and make it worthwhile for Renault to keep on getting involved with us like this.
So, go back to the Cliosport front page and enter the comp! Its not gonna cost you anything except a bit of time. Well except those few Clio drivers reading this who arent actually members yet. Then its gonna cost you a measly fiver to join or an insignificant £2.00 if you get a sticker at the same time!
Non-members - dont be cheap!
Members - dont be lazy!
Rant over...
